I already had a bit of a tummy before and now in early weeks it feels more bloated and i feel conscious. Not trying to do anything risky obviously, just want to know if light stuff is fine. Anyone been here?
I know we all worry about the tummy but this is not the phase to cut weight. I just chose healthier meals and took short walks. Let go of the fat loss goal for now, ask gynac what weight gain is normal for you.
I get the urge but dieting to lose fat in pregnancy is not advised. What I did was light walking and prenatal yoga, only after my doctor cleared me. It keeps you fit without trying to reduce weight.
Please dont focus on losing fat right now. Instead eat balanced, avoid junk and stay active in a safe way. Your doctor will track healthy weight gain for you, thats whats important now.
Honestly pregnancy is not the time to try and lose belly fat. Your body needs the nourishment now. Focus on eating clean and gentle movement, not weight loss. The belly will only grow from here.
